Stop hating on the sleepers!

[Freedomesong]

Duality gives you a chance to define what you are, by noticing what you are not. 

Imagine that you are in a white room with white walls and a white ceiling with no corners. Imagine you were suspended in the middle of this room by some invisible force. You are dangling there in mid air, you cannot touch anything nor hear anything and all you see is whiteness. How long do you think you will exist in your own experience? Pretty soon you would literally leave your mind. Your mind is the part of you that is concerned with making sense of all incoming data. Without any data incoming your mind has nothing to do. The moment you go out of your mind you cease to exist in your own experience, you don’t know anything in particular about yourself. Are you big? Are you small? You cannot know because there is nothing outside of yourself with which to compare yourself. Are you good, are you evil, you cannot know. Are you even here? You cannot know because there is nothing over there. You cannot know anything about yourself in your own experience. You can conceptualize it all you want, but you cannot experience it.

Then something happens to change all this. Their appears a tiny dot on the wall. It’s as if someone has come along and squirted the wall with a tiny dot of ink. The dot has saved you. Now there is something else, there is you and the dot on the wall. Suddenly you can make some decisions again, you can have some experiences again. The dot is over there, that means you must be over here. The dot is smaller than you so you are bigger than it. You are starting to define yourself again in relationship to the dot on the wall. Your relationship with the dot soon becomes sacred because it has given you back a sense of yourself. Now a kitten comes in the room. You don’t know who is doing all this but you are grateful. Because now some more decisions can be made. The kitten appears softer, but you appear smarter.  It is faster but you are stronger. More things  begin appearing in the room and you begin to expand your definition of self. Then it dawns on you….. only in the presence of something else can you know yourself, this something else is that which you are not. Thus in the absence of what you are not, that which you are, is not.

You have remembered an enormous truth, and you vow never to forget it again. You welcome every other person place and thing in your life with open arms. You reject none of it because you see now that all that appears in your life is a blessing. Presenting you with a greater opportunity to define who you are and to know yourself as that.

 

Get it?

Play well my friends

Preach! 

"Do not condemn them, for they know not what they do." - Jesus, paraphrased

Your ability to enjoy this life is directly proportional to your ability to love. Love the people and things you used to hate. Understand them.

So close!

I like spiritual concept that reveal to be true.

I like the same quotes ( thanks to leo for reveal it to me )

Isaac Newton :

"If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants."

 

BUT MAYBE I M GIANT MYSELF MUHAHAHA

 

I like too much to help people, I try to hate them, but it doesn't make sense.

I m 25, but I always feel like a parent to everyone, even for my mother & father, that's the most weird thing.

I like "stupid, blind" people, not that " I like" but I mean, I can probably help.

 

Just It's only when they are on my road, I m not a preacher.
